NOT FOR SALE: The $20 Million Political Buyout We Are Breaking
The Official TRACER Data on How the Establishment is Financing the 2026 Colorado Gubernatorial Race
When you look at the Colorado Capitol, you are looking at an investment portfolio not a gathering place where people's problems find solutions. As we approach the June 30, 2026 primary elections, official campaign finance reports filed with the Colorado Secretary of State’s TRACER system reveal a sobering truth: The establishment candidates and the Super PACs backing them have already hauled in a staggering, combined pool of over $20 million. They are going to buy Colorado out from under you. This is why Christian Komor for Governor has and will always remaining Independent, transparent and accountable. We won't poll you to fool your vote. We will poll you after taking office to find out what you need and make it happen.
We believe voters deserve the raw, unfiltered data. Here are the unassailable, verified facts of how our opponents are funding their operations:
The Democratic Primary: Billionaire Super PACs vs. Record-Breaking Cash Loops
The race to succeed term-limited Governor Jared Polis on the Democratic side has devolved into a multi-million dollar spending war. While individual donations directly to a candidate’s committee are legally capped at $1,450, the post-Citizens United landscape allows outside independent expenditure committees (Super PACs) to sweep up unlimited corporate and billionaire fortunes.
U.S. Senator Michael Bennet
-
The Campaign Committee: Bennet's direct campaign account reported $4.4 million in total contributions.
-
The Billionaire Out-of-State Anchor: His state-level Super PAC, "Rocky Mountain Way," has left the rest of the field in the dust, reporting over $6 million in total revenues.
-
The Mega-Donors: More than half of that Super PAC's entire war chest comes from a single out-of-state corporate mogul. Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg cut massive checks boosting his personal contributions to Bennet's Super PAC to an historic $2.5 million.
-
The Dark Money Factor: "Rocky Mountain Way" also accepted $500,000 from a non-profit called "Brighter Future for Colorado." Because of legal loopholes, this organization is a "dark money" group that is not required to disclose the true identities of its underlying donors.
Attorney General Phil Weiser
-
The Campaign Committee: Weiser has run a highly coordinated fundraising operation, bringing in just under $5.9 million directly to his campaign account. This eclipses former Governor John Hickenlooper’s 2014 record to become the most money ever raised by a non-self-funding candidate for state office in Colorado history.
-
The In-State Defense: The Weiser campaign boasts over 35,500 total donations, with 90% to 93% of his contributions coming directly from Colorado residents.
-
The PAC Footprint: While Weiser aggressively critiques Bennet’s billionaire backing, Weiser maintains his own outside independent expenditure committee, "Fighting for Colorado," which has brought in just over $1 million from various corporate, real estate, and private equity investors.
The Republican Primary: National MAGA Networks vs. Underfunded Lawmakers
On the Republican side, the fundraising landscape reflects a deep divide between traditional legislative figures and high-profile non-traditional outsiders.
Victor Marx (Ministry Leader & Outsider)
-
The War Chest: A first-time candidate and Colorado Springs-based missionary leader, Marx has completely dominated the GOP money race, pulling in nearly $2.3 million in total contributions.
-
The Operational Loop: Marx has burned through his cash rapidly on media buyouts, leaving roughly $530,000 on hand. His Super PAC, "Freedom IEC," reports minimal direct cash but relies heavily on "in-kind" structural corporate support—including a single $62,400 injection of political expertise and research from veteran consultants.
The Legislative Underdogs
The actual sitting state lawmakers in the Republican field are being systematically starved of capital by comparison:
-
State Senator Barb Kirkmeyer has raised a total of just over $500,000 since launching her campaign, heading into the final leg of the primary with a thin $93,000 cash on hand.
-
State Representative Scott Bottoms, despite winning top-line billing at the state GOP assembly, has raised a total of nearly $180,000 and entered the critical pre-primary phase virtually broke, with just $8,000 remaining in the bank.
The Komor Alternative: Systemic Independence
This campaign completely rejects the flat, linear illusion that you must buy a governorship through billionaire favors or corporate dark money. When an establishment candidate accepts a $2.5 million injection from a New York billionaire, they are no longer working for the families of the Western Plains or the Front Range.
Our platform doesn’t rely on corporate handouts because our infrastructure solutions are built to be self-sustaining. By launching market-facing Government-Owned Enterprises (GOEs) that convert industrial AI thermal waste into carbon-commodities, we are engineering a future that bypasses the corporate donor class entirely.
We are building a biosecurity firewall, protecting our water tables, and stabilizing our energy grid under Article X, Section 20 of the State Constitution—delivering complete economic sovereignty to Colorado families at a net cost to taxpayers of exactly $0.00.
We answer to the data. We answer to the architecture. And most importantly, we answer only to you.
